Re: Who have you met?

Good choice anything Milwaukee is high quality. I have had mine 15+ years.
To help prolong life when you are using it run it no load for a min or 2 in between buffing. This will keep the tool cool and as with any electrical motor heat is the cause of most all failures

I will do.Thanks for the advice.i'm going to put a post in the appropriate place.

Cool john! I take it you like Golf?

Sure do! Love playing, really need to practice my driving and putting they have been killing my score! My dad used to take me to the Byron Nelson tournament when I was little, I saw Byron but never met him

I met Mike Phillips and Kevin Brown once. But it was a brief exchange of words, not even sure they paid attention to me at all, and I'm sure they don't remember me

They were probably saying, "When is this guy going to leave us along?" Was Kevin wearing his legendary hat??

Elvis... at least I think it was Elvis. He said he was in a hurry to get to his job at the 7-11.

When I lived in Maryland, Emmy Lou Harris's parents, Bucky & Genia, were my parishioners. They had my wife and I over to dine with them and their daughter. We had a delightful time.

When I was a junior in high school, I spent six weeks as a page in the U.S. House of Representatives. I saw a number of famous politicians. I road down the elevator once with Teddy Kennedy. I said hello and he said hello back.

When I was in seminary, my wife and I had Michael Ramsey and his wife Joan over to our house for dinner on two occasions. Ramsey was the 100% Archbishop of Canterbury and one of the great Anglican churchmen of the 20th century.

Got to meet Brooks Robinson and Johnny Unitas a few times, my father-in-law was their accountant. And met most of the 98-2002 Washinton Capitals, as a referee I got to skate the pre-season try outs. Bondra is really quick.

Re: Who have you met?

I saw the pope but didn't meet him. I met Weird Al Yankovic, a whole bunch of famous comedians, a number of politicians, the owner of the the Jacob Javitts center in Manhattan (and played a virtual reality game with him). In junior high school I was friends with the current youngest chess grandmaster in the word, Fabiano Caruana; but he moved to Hungary. A few famous athletes, I am not into sports so much, so I was never really star-struck.

Re: Who have you met?

When I worked at Walt Disney World (Orlando) '89-'90 I met the following:
Carrie Fisher (Princess Leiha)
Louis Gosset Jr
Booger (Revenge of the Nerds)
John Candy
John Ritter
Vanna White (Wheel of Fortune)
Jeff Gordon (at a race)

Most of them were at the opening of MGM.

Is Carrie Fisher, STILL as good looking as she was say ... 10 years ago?

Famous people, Frank Boal( KC sports writer), George Brett(KC baseball player HOF), Tom Watson(golfer), Chi Chi Rodrigues(golfer), Deron Cherry, there are some lesser known that I have met,but these are some of the major people, that I met at Tom Watson's golf cherity for Children Mercy Hospital in K.C.

Nobody, outside of local TV personalities, or local elected officials. But my wife's uncle had Chuck Yeager for a co-pilot in WWII. Plus another uncle knew Elvis Presley before he became famous. He used to pick up a young Elvis in a church bus and taught in some of his Sunday School classes as well. Elvis used to sing and play gospel music in church with his first guitar.
